The Inspiration Behind Hendrick's Oasium
Hendrick's new limited-edition release, Hendrick's Oasium, was born from the creative mind of the company's Master Distiller, Lesley Gracie, following a captivating journey to the desert where she participated in a camel polo match (because, why not?).
Captivated by a lush paradise of aromatic herbs and vibrant fruits, Lesley was inspired to create this new gin, best enjoyed with a refreshing cucumber and tonic.
The Essence of Hendrick's Oasium
This marks the eighth release from the brand's Cabinet of Curiosities, aimed at curious consumers seeking something new and different in the ever-evolving world of gin.
Like its limited-edition predecessors – such as the fruit-forward Hendrick's Grand Cabaret and the curiously delightful rose and cucumber-infused Hendrick's Midsummer Solstice – Hendrick's Oasium stays true to the original Hendrick's gin base. However, it introduces an additional layer of complexity with a blend of desert-inspired botanicals that enhance the fresh, green, and citrus notes.
"It was fascinating to see which plants thrive in an oasis; there are things you wouldn't expect and others that are more predictable. Hendrick's Oasium has a very distinctive green and fresh character and a bright citrus note specific to some particularly small desert botanicals. This is rounded off with a lovely depth of flavor, and the aromatic herbs of the oasis bring it all together in perfect harmony," explains Lesley, maintaining an air of intrigue and challenging consumers to decipher the ingredients in this new limited edition.
Ways to Savor Hendrick's Oasium
Inspired by a curious and refreshing oasis, the brand proposes several combinations to fully appreciate the unique flavor profile of Hendrick's Oasium, highlighting the ingredients that make it so distinctive, different, and special.
As Ally Martin, Hendrick's Global Brand Ambassador, explains, "Firstly, as with all our releases, Hendrick's Oasium works beautifully in a Gin & Tonic. A long drink alternative is the Hendrick's Oasium Fizz, which is similar to a Paloma cocktail."
He continues, "Grapefruit pairs exceptionally well with Hendrick's Oasium, and the gin's bright, tart notes, along with a little sugar and soda to lengthen, make it ideal for sharing with friends. If you're looking for a fresh take on a classic cocktail, try a Hendrick's Oasium Pegu Club, an elegant option to kickstart an evening out."

"Gracie, who said she has long been captivated by creating intriguing botanical blends to tell the stories of her personal experiences, was inspired by an 'unusual' trip that included camel polo and sun-drenched sands. It was on this journey that she was inspired by a hidden paradise 'brimming with refreshing herbs and vibrant fruits.'"

"I find endless inspiration in my surroundings, and every time I see the palm trees at the Hendrick's Gin Palace, it transported me back to this extraordinary journey," said Gracie. "It was such an extraordinary journey that I had to capture it in a gin, preserving the memory forever.
"Fresh grapefruit juice complements the vibrant notes of the gin, resulting in a divine twist reminiscent of a Paloma, perfect for all manner of gatherings under the sun or stars."
